Who else
Who else would touch a fading bloom
with refreshing teardrops,
an enhancing dignity,
a delight to the eye ?
Who else would crown a head,
Its thinning hair beyond its prime,
in silver-grey ?
Who else would paint Autumn leaves
in regal reds and golds ?
Their parting waves a crescendo of colour
when skies are dour and threatening.
Who else would lay hands on a simple meal
making it a foretaste of heaven
to heal and restore ?
Who else would handle the gravity of death
giving it purpose, celebration and joy ?
